Who: Allison, Derek, and later Stiles
Where: The Hale Estate
When: Week 6, Thursday early morning
Why: Allison's run away and is looking for Stiles
Warning: None that I know if at the moment

Allison had had enough of being stuck in Eterna's house, so the first opportunity she'd got, she escaped. It had been the middle of the night, when she was sure that all the slaves and Eterna herself were sleeping, and she ran as far and as fast as she could go. If she was going to get caught, it would've been worth it. But after running for about ten minutes, she realised she wasn't being followed, and slowed down, thinking things through a little more.

She wanted to go home. See her dad. And if she was going to do that, she was taking Stiles with her. Keeping off the streets, she moved to a wooded area, hoping to take cover before she could work out where he was. Keeping to the shadows, however, she sensed someone nearby, and she slipped behind a tree, holding her breath. So long as she stayed still, she wouldn't be found.

"That's what she said too." She muttered, swallowing. "That... Our dads just didn't find a Master they were suited to... that that was why they ran away." It wasn't something that she believed - but maybe part of her was right. Maybe Stiles was. That their dad didn't want this, but they did.

"Do you think Derek's right, then?" She asked, tentatively, shifting slightly. "That we're their responsibility? That it's for our safety... Keeping us from our families?" She glanced at him again, and shrugged. "I don't know what to believe any more, Stiles. We deserve freedom, but..." She trailed off, curling into him tighter. "I just don't know anything any more."

"I think he believes that," Stiles said as he held onto Allison trying to give her the comfort that she needed. His hand rubbed her side and back as he spoke. "He believes it is his duty to look after his slaves. He was raised that way, just like we were raised to believe in freedom and equal rights."

Stiles pulled his head up so he could look down at Allison, with a serious look on his face. He had been thinking about this a lot. "But are we any better then the Masters out there that torture their slaves? We kill any supernatural creature we come across. We go out hunting for them. Hell, I lost my best friend because he was bitten. He became a werewolf but his personality didn't change. Scott was still Scott and yet they drove him out of the camps."

"Is it such a bad thing to believe in freedom and equal rights?" She laughed, tiredly, before shaking her head. "If we didn't go hunting for them? They'd enslave us. Take away our freedom - we do it to protect ourselves." But he was right - people like Emerson, like Ambrose, maybe even Derek to an extent, didn't deserve it. But it didn't mean most of them didn't. She'd never seen Stiles looking quite so serious before, and she wasn't sure what to say.

"... Why do they need to own us? Why can't we just live side by side? Let them live where they want, let us live where we want? Instead of running, and hiding, and living in fear, living constantly on the defence in case we get picked up and bought? I know they handled Scott wrongly, but... They aren't completely wrong. Not all the time."

"Of course it isn't a bad thing, Ally, it is something that we shouldn't have to fight for," Stiles said softly because the pair of them were going around in circles, just he had done with Derek before he had decided to stay, just like he knew Allison had done with Eterna probably repeatedly.

"Like I said before Derek believes that he has to take care of his slaves and I believe that a lot of Masters think that way. That we can't take care of ourselves," Stiles said with just a hint of a grin. "I would like to see them survive in the camps for a week." What they had here, in Crescent Hills, was spoiling the once free humans compared to what they were use to.

"I... honestly think that if you found a kind Master you would be ok here, Ally," Stiles said knowing he had very much lucked out with Derek. He could have gone to someone like Eterna and feel exactly like Allison did now.

"But it's something we are fighting for. And we're giving up on. And it's just... hard to accept." She shook her head, knowing she had to drop it. That neither of them had the moral high ground any more. They'd fought, they'd lost, they'd settled. It was more complicated than simply right and wrong.

"I'd love to arrange that. I doubt most of them have even seen a tent before." She laughed, seeing Stiles' grin - something she'd missed. They'd spent so much time together, growing up, and being in the camps together, it was hard not seeing each other all the time.

"... What if I have a Master whose kind so long as I let her treat me as bad as she wants?" She smiled sadly, shaking her head. "I know Derek's going to send me back. Part of me hates that, part of me... kinda knows that I need to. We all know Eterna'd never sell me to him, so... that's where I'll stay." Hugging her knees to herself again, she glanced at him. "Think Derek'll let me stay even for a little while? I'll do whatever, just... I miss you, Stiles. I really do."

"Hey, don't give up, Ally," Stiles said before he moved and wrapped his arms tightly around her. "We will think of something. Maybe she will let Derek buy you if she gets to have me for a month or something," Stiles offered because even though he hated the thought of being anywhere near Eterna he would do it for Allison.

"And I will ask him. Force him to let you stay." Stiles was grinning again even though he knew he wouldn't be able to force Derek to do anything he didn't want to do.

"You know Derek won't let that happen, and I won't let that happen, so don't even try." She cuddled him back, smiling sadly. "I promise, I'll be okay, you aren't spending time with her."

This time, Allison giggled, but she could hear footsteps outside, so she covered her mouth, trying to silence herself. "That'll be fun to see you try." She whispered, kissing his cheek.

Derek hadn't rushed through his morning routine, but he felt guilty at keeping a secret from Isaac--even if it was only temporary.

The result was that he didn't know whether Allison or Stiles would still be there when he got there. Not until he'd gotten close enough to sense their heartbeats.

And, yeah, their words.

While Derek was relieved that she hadn't managed to convince Stiles to go with her, but it meant that he was left with the problem of what to do with her.

He opened the door and studied the two humans, curled up on the couch.

Stiles' head turned when Derek stepped into the garage and he slowly pulled away from Allison, unsure how the werewolf would react to him being so close to another person. He didn't want to upset Derek with his actions because he knew it probably would with his words.

"You are going to buy Allison. Make a deal if you have to with the bitch," Stiles said his tone completely serious, "if I have to go there for a month or two I will if she lets you buy Allison."

"Stiles!" Allison snapped, staring at him, wide-eyed. "I told you, no! I won't have you do that for me!" Quickly, she stood up from the couch, unsure of exactly what to do. She didn't want to make anything worse for Stiles, even if he was okay with things, she didn't know how Derek would react to this. "I didn't put him up to this." She said quickly, looking up at Derek.

"It's not his decision to make, even if he thinks it is," Derek replied, an eyebrow having raised at his slave's declaration. "I wouldn't put him in danger."

He regarded the two for a long moment. "You can stay here for a few days," he offered. "And then I want you gone. I don't care where you go, but you can't stay here. You're a threat to the pack. That's why you'll stay here, in the garage. I'm in the middle of restoring a motorcycle. No one will find it strange if I start taking lunch here, or for Stiles to assist me."

	"You mean that? She can stay?" Stiles asked taken back for a moment. He had been angry when Derek outright denied his demand but this was better. He wasn't forcing Allison out so they had time to make a proper plan. Grinning like an idiot Stiles was up off of the couch and throwing his arms around Derek. "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I so owe you for this." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Allison's eyes widened at Derek's decision - it wasn't something she expected at all - not only a place to stay so she could work out her next move, but he wouldn't send her back to Eterna. She could be home with her dad within the week, and explain about how things worked - maybe even make them see things could be better if they just gave people a chance.

"I... Wow. Thank you." She said, looking up at Derek. He didn't seem like the type of person who would accept a hug, so she didn't offer one, and the garage wasn't that bad a place. It wasn't five star accommodation, but still, living in the camps had been a lot worse. She glanced at Stiles, and smiled, approvingly. Maybe Derek really was one of the good guys.

Derek had an armful of excited Stiles, and he eyed Allison over the top of his head. "It's temporary," he said, gruffly. He wasn't so cruel as to want to return an unhappy human to her Mistress. Especially when that Mistress was Eterna, and Derek still hadn't forgiven her for the way she'd treated Stiles--even if she'd done it at Laura's request. That was a separate issue.

"You're gone by the full moon," he decided. It would be best for everyone, especially if there were going to be non-pack people roaming Hale lands.

	"You're the best. The absolute best," Stiles said beyond happy because Allison was going to get to stay which meant they could make a solid plan on getting her out of there. Cupping Derek's cheeks he pulled the werewolf in for a happy kiss before he was gone, tackling Allison on the couch. "You're staying!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Being tackled onto the couch, Allison let out a giggle, and wrapped her arms around him tightly, the giggle turning into a bigger laugh. "I am!" She smiled, ruffling his hair. She glanced at Derek at the last second, silently thanking him again, and cuddled up to Stiles, shamelessly (Reply to this) (Parent)
